What exactly about this is novel? Allowing the user to draw a path and matching it to the nearest path sounds like the most user friendly thing to do on mobile.

What exactly about this is novel? Allowing the user to draw a path and matching it to the nearest path sounds like the most user friendly thing to do on mobile. If I was developing a similar app, I would have done the same without knowing about either of these. I've thought before that this would be a useful feature in Google Maps.
